Woodsy Peg Doll Home

I finished this custom order doll house this week. Isn't it adorable? I had so much fun making everything. I love the colors that were chosen. Pink and grey are one of my all time favorite color combos. They look so wonderful together.

I made a little fur rug in this one. How cute. Really it's just a scrap piece of faux fur I had laying around from craft show creations. I save all my scraps. You never know what can come in handy. I go crazy with saving them scraps of fabric that every 2 years I go through them and if I am finished with seeing and using them, I pass them off to friends who make quilts. Once I locally had a yard sale and some lady was shopping my yard haha and she asks, do you have any fabric scraps? Well little did she know she asked the right person. I was like, WHY YES I DO. I brought out an entire box full of fabrics and scraps that I had already prepped for donating. I said here you go. She gave me 10 bucks. I was like no take it. She left the 10 bucks and was smiling and said oh my gosh you made my day. She paid me to take it off my hands. I was happy. She was happy. I donated several yards of fabric in that box that I just don't use in my crafts. My friends all think (and i love them for that *smooches*) of me when they see someone giving away fabric so I end up with a some AWESOME and not so awesome in my eyes fabrics. thank goodness for different tastes and crafts cause my won't use is someone's must have.

This is a vintage linen? I am not sure. It's a table cloth that seems to be able to fit a card table.
I do like the print.

I found a turquoise hard shell vintage train suitcase.

It's Perfect!

I found this large Pyrex bowl. It's the same size as the large yellow bowl in the primary set. $3.00 was all it cost. Sweet.

I mixed this glass tea cup and saucer in here to show off the color more. I need to dust. Eek

Say Hi to the baby ducks. YES those are the babies! Look how they have grown.

Look at all the colors that are coming in. Awwwww.

They are so cute and still peep at me.

Ps. I was totally watching the Royal Wedding this morning. I really loved seeing everything. It was amazing. I loved the hats. her dress was SO AMAZING!

Vintage American Tourister Suitcase

I found this green hard shell vintage American Tourister suitcase. I also found a vintage round hard shell suitcase. I love them both. This is my first round suitcase. I am so thrilled!

It is really pretty inside. I love that color green. The round has purple. Nice!

I love how this side has a zipper closure. You do not see that in most of the suitcases. This one opens and closes no problems.

I finally found my vintage bunny handkerchief I have been searching all over the house for. (2 weeks) It was hiding on me really good.

We ventured out to our good friends house this past weekend. That is Fort Lauderdale you see in the background. We has cocktails and conversations. Oh and the food. We could not stop eating the food. My friend makes wonderful food. She uses the best, fresh, natural ingredients one can buy here and she can cook like a diva. Her flavors are so wonderful on your taste buds. You are just unable to say no to anything. You can't wait to eat when you go to her house.

My hubby was like WOW. WOW. I said. I know. These are chicken and Filet Mignon fajita sammiches. More like wraps. But Whoa. The taste of these. My favorite of the night. Chicken or steak hands down can't choose between the two. I just want some now. Thinking about these and looking at these again. I am going to cry when I eat my veggie meal tonight. The flavor was so amazing. I just loved it.

He was like why can't we cook like this? I said. She is a professional. (sausage pasta)

Hubby does not care for lamb. He ate the lamb.

BBQ pulled pork sammiches? Oh never like this have I ever tasted. Everrrrr!

Baked Juicy coated wings. I don't remember much of what she said she coated them with. Something yummy and healthy. Not flour. But I never did finish hearing her sentence cause I ate mine so fast I had to go back for more. I only put one on my plate cause I was trying to be good. HAHAHA! The Blue Cheese dip in the above photo. Yeah that went with this. WOW.

I have been doing some side work. Keeping things tidy around the house. Clipping Coupons. Smiling and sewing. I am prepping for Art Rock. The ducks in the back yard the bigger ones. Wow you should see them. I have to get a photo of them the next time I see them walking by. They always use my yard as a way to get to the lake. I don't get to see them often like I used too. They are prolly keeping that mama duck so busy. They are currently going through that loosing of the fur and getting the feathers stage. The colors are really coming out. Some are just popping with designs and color. They still come up to me and give me that little cheer. They are so cute.

Odd Duck Craft Show #2

Oh My! I had such fun at Odd Duck this year. I never got any photos of downstairs. They had a tent outside a food area in the pavilion and the cafeteria was full of vendors. I was upstairs. It was hard to get away and visit. I totally tried. We were busy. I wanted to share photos all day. My internet was not working on this pc and all my photos were here and everyone in the house had their internet working fine. Eekkk. Hubs came to the rescue and fixed it in 2 seconds. Of course. I was really happy with my booth set up. I sold a whole bunch of dolls. Thank you everyone who came out to support us. Thank you for supporting my sewing/creating obsession. If you want to come see me at my next show. I will be doing Art Rock in May on the 7th. Starts at noon. You will find more information on the right top corner of this page.
